The difference between ducks and geese

Some friends may have some misunderstandings about ducks and geese, which causes them to be unable to distinguish between these two types of poultry. The obvious difference between goose and duck is that goose is bigger in size, and there is meat protruding on the forehead of goose. The texture of the meat of the two is also very different, so friends who love to eat must know how to distinguish them.

The distinction is mainly based on the following aspects (the first picture is a goose, the second picture is a duck):

1. Appearance: The goose has an orange-yellow or dark-brown fleshy protrusion on its forehead, a long neck, a flat and wide beak, high legs and a short tail, webbed feet between the toes, and white or gray feathers. Ducks have flat beaks, short legs, webbed toes, are good at swimming but cannot fly high.

2. Body size: Geese are usually larger than ducks.

3. Call: The calls of geese and ducks are generally similar, but the harsh and scolding call of geese is different from the cautious call of ducks.

4. Courage: Ducks are more afraid of people. When people approach, they will give way and run away, but geese stand proudly.

5. Pace: The goose walks leisurely and with a swagger. The duck walked in a hurried pace, looking uneasy.

Goose is a hot food and can cause allergies, while duck is a cold food. Therefore, everyone should eat duck according to their own physical condition and make sure not to eat the wrong food when they need to take care of their body. In rural areas, if you have sores, you must not eat goose meat, otherwise the sores will become more severe and fester.

In appearance, the goose has a relatively long neck with orange-yellow or dark brown fleshy protrusions on the neck, relatively long legs and a short tail. Another thing is that the goose has a relatively large forehead, which generally protrudes forward. A duck has a shorter neck and a slightly longer tail, so it cannot fly high. Its forehead is not as big or as prominent as that of a goose.

In terms of size, geese are larger, while ducks are usually smaller than geese.

In terms of calls, geese and ducks are similar, but the geese's calls are neither hurried nor hurried, and are louder, while the duck's calls are short and continuous, and are more cautious.

In terms of courage, geese are more arrogant than dogs. In rural areas, farmers use geese to guard the house, and dogs have to hide when they see geese. But the same cannot be said for ducks, as they are cowardly and timid, and they will run away if frightened.

Temperament, yes, we want to talk about temperament at the end. Geese have a more elegant temperament; after all, they are relatives of swans. Geese usually hold their heads high, walk at a leisurely pace, turn their heads at a leisurely pace, and walk in a dignified and unhurried manner. But the duck is not the same. It looks sneaky, walks hurriedly, and sways from side to side, just like a nouveau riche.
